"Everyone come to the center room please," David's voice filled the room. Harry and the others walked into the middle of the room. Harry looked left and saw Ginny smiling broadly and to his right was Luna. She was looked up at Harry and gave him the smallest of smiles before looking back forward. Harry looked forward and smiled.
"We lost," David said with a pause. "We lost good knights tonight. We must celebrate in their honor," David finished as he held up his fist. A roar of the other knights followed it as they too raised their fist in the air.
Harry and the others walked back to their rooms. As they entered, they noticed that there was another bed moved in.
"We are going to be in this room also," Kate said as they entered.
"Wait," Hermione said as she turned on Ty. "Some call you a murder and others call you a knight. What is it?"
"A bit of both really," Ty said as he passed her and walked over to Kate.
"What dose that mean," Neville asked.
"You'll find out tomorrow," Ty said with a small smile. He took off his coat and threw it on the table next to the first bed. "I'm going to bed I'll see you guys in the morning." Harry and the others followed his lead and fell asleep.
Harry awoke abruptly due to a loud horn that filled the town. Harry looked around and saw Ty and Kate dash out the door their coats sweeping behind them. Harry saw Ron looking at him with wide eyes.
"Come on we need to get ready," Harry said as the group started to get ready. They walked out of the room and made their way down to the main entrance hall. Harry saw Ty and Kate waiting for them.
"Come on," Kate said as she walked out of the door.
"What's going on?" Hermione asked as she moved closer to Ron.
"Sun Valley was attacked and there retreating here," Ty said as they walked outside. There was a huge army marching threw the city. Harry noticed some of them were on Hippogriffs and others where on Griffons. All of the soldiers where wearing white robes with yellow symbols of the sun on their chest. Each of them where equipped with bows and arrows. There was a huge man with a gray beard riding a giant griffon. The man had a golden crown on his head and a staff that resembled a sun in his right hand. He looked over everyone in the city and stopped his army.
"It's been a while David," The man said sternly as he jumped down from his griffon. David walked forward.
"That it has," He said with somewhat disgust. The man walked from the griffon to David.
"I wouldn't be here if I couldn't help it," He said quietly. David put up a hand to stop him.
"How many?" David asked. The man looked up with darken eyes.
"The enemy moves with thousands, hundreds of thousands," He said in a shaky voice. "They move with the forest. They change into forms we have never seen. Very dark, very dark indeed. This will be the final battle for everyone that is fighting against He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named."
"Jon," David said sternly. "You are welcome for as long as you want. My knights will offer you boarding to yours and we will fight these beasts together."
"Thank you," Jon said as he turned to his army and motioned them to unpack. Jon walked back to David when a person road up behind him.
"Father," The person called from behind Jon. Jon turned around.
"Yes Sara." Jon said as he turned around. Sara looked down at the group and smiled. She had long sleek black hair that was pulled up into a tight ponytail. She had violet eyes and her skin was a touch tan. She got off her hippogriff and walked up to her father. Harry noticed that she was about the same height as Luna. She was really filled out but she could not be older than Ginny or Luna.
"Are these the knights you told stories about when I was younger?" Sara asked. Her father nodded.
"Yes," Jon said. "That's not all, this is your Uncle." Jon said pointing to David who smiled down at Sara. Her eyes lit up as she looked from David to Jon.
"I haven't seen you since you where a baby," David said as he looked down at her. Sara smiled and looked at Harry and the others. her eyes fell on Harry where she saw the scar.
"Harry," She said. "Harry Potter." Harry nodded.
"Yes," Harry said. "And these are my friends. Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, and," Harry said as he looked around. "Where's Neville?"
"What do you mean?" David said as he turned to the group and looked like he was counting. There was a loud roar down the street. Harry looked down and saw Neville running towards a burning part of the town. "KNIGHTS, LET'S ROLL."
David and the others raised up their bandanas and ran down the street. Jon and his army followed. Harry and the others split up from the other knights to find Neville. They ran down the road and turned the corner where the town was being destroyed. There where about twenty giant trolls rampaging around the city. One of them picked up a man in blue robes bit him in half. The troll turned to Harry and his group. The troll let out a loud roar throwing pieces of flesh everywhere.
"Not a good idea," Hermione said as she took another step back. Harry shot a spell at the troll. It did nothing but bounce off and hit a building.
"Hermione what spell can we use?" Ron yelled as another troll ran threw a building behind them. He raised his club and charged at the group, as did the first one.
"I don't know," Hermione said. Harry looked left and saw a small alleyway.
"THIS WAY!" Harry yelled as the trolls where feet away. They dashed down the alleyway. The trolls hit each other and fell back. They turned and crashed threw the alleyway. Harry kept running and every once and a while would look back to see the trolls still chasing them. Harry came to the end of the alleyway, which was a dead end. He looked back and saw the trolls about fifty yards away and closing in.
"This is it," Ginny said as she looked around frantically. Luna looked back at Harry with her dreamy structure gone. He could not bare to look at her in that state. Harry turned and looked at the trolls now only a mere thirty yards away. He shot every spell he knew at them. He even tried to fling rocks or other debris at their heads. Nothing stopped them.
"HARRY," He heard a voice yell. He looked up and saw Neville. He looked like he broke his nose and had a cut behind his left ear. He was holding his left arm with his wand hand and his robes where torn. He smiled down at them. He jumped down from the top of the building and landed with a dull thud in front of Harry. Harry looked back up at the building, it was five stories high, Harry looked back at Neville who was getting to his feet slowly.
"NEVILLE ARE YOU CRAZY," Harry yelled at him as Neville stood up and brushed off his over coat.
"No," He said with a smile. He raised his wand and said, "Spariviltaon." The spell shot a purple light from his wand and hit the troll in the chest. It went threw and hit the second one too. Both trolls where only ten yards away and they fell back with huge gapping holes in their chests. Harry looked at Neville astonished.
"Who are you?" Harry asked. "And where is Neville?" Harry asked with a small smile. Neville looked back at him.
"That's the last of them," Neville said as he dropped to his knees. Harry looked down at the end of the alleyway and saw David and Jon with all of the knights cheering. David and Jon walked in and smiled at the group.
"Who did that spell?" Jon asked looking at Harry. "You did it didn't you." Harry shock his head and pointed to Neville.
"All him," Harry said as he picked up Neville by the arms and walked him to out of the alleyway. Ty and Kate walked up to them and helped Harry as Neville lost his balance.
"Why don't we just rest here," Ty said as he and Harry laid Neville against the trolls massive head. Neville looked up at Harry and the others.
"What?" Neville asked at everyone staring at him.
"Where did you learn to jump off buildings, fight and do massive spells like that?" Hermione said pretty much everyone's questions.
"Oh and how did you get hurt?" Ty asked.
"Well I saw smoke," Neville started as Jon and his daughter walked over to listen. "And where there's smoke there fire. I didn't think it was an attack I just thought that it was a fire and they might have need some help." Neville said looking around. "I showed up and there where about twenty trolls, and they started to spilt up and take command from this huge troll. He went away from the other trolls but I could not let him get away. I looked back and saw you guys coming so I went down to find him. Once I did, we fought and he hit me with his club twice. These clothes absorbed most of the blow but I still felt it I think I might of broke something in my chest. Anyway, I remembered that spell from a book I read. It is said that it should have been an unforgivable, but the ministry never got to do the trial. I tried it on the troll it shot right threw him. I turned and saw the rest of the trolls coming after me. One hit me so hard I flew on top of one of the buildings. I got back up and shot the same spell another eighteen times. I heard another grunt and looked down and saw an alleyway with you guys in it. The rest is self-explanatory." Neville finished and looked up at the group.
"Shit," Ty said as he looked down at Neville. "Twenty adult trolls and one King troll."
"That's close to your record Ty I'd watch out," David said with a smile. Ty nodded.
"He could have my back any day," Ty said. Harry looked over and saw Sara bending down healing Neville's nose.
"Who are you?" Neville asked after she healed his nose. She smiled at him and healed his arm.
"I'm Sara," She said softly with a small blush. She put her wand away behind her right ear and walked back to her father who was glaring at her.
"Time to go," David said quickly and walked back to the guild. Once back at the guild Harry and the others dropped Neville in a makeshift hospital wing. A nurse shooed them out of the area.
"I'll be out in a bit," Neville said as the nurse rounded on him. Harry nodded and walked into the dinning room. Ty and Kate where talking to Sara who was next to her father who glared at Harry and the others.
"Harry," Ty called them over. Harry and the others sat by Ty and Kate.
"How's Neville," Kate asked. Harry shrugged.
"I don't know," Harry said. "He seemed fine." Just then Neville walked threw the door with one of the nurses hot on his tale.
"Tell this crazy lady I'm ok," Neville said as he approached the table. The nurse was screaming in a foreign language with a tone that sound like Neville wasn't allowed out of the hospital. Kate stood up and pulled the nurse aside. After a quick talk, the nurse walked back to the hospital.
"She says you didn't get enough rest," Kate said. Neville sighed.
"I don't need anymore rest," Neville said as he sat down next to Luna on the far end of the table. Harry looked up to see Jon glaring down there group of teens. David walked in and the atmosphere changed completely. he walked over to his seat and sat down looking down at a large scroll of paper. He looked up at his knights.
"We are going to need to start a new group of knights," David said looking around at everyone. "These knights will be the called Shadow Foxes. They will be doing spy work and assignations. I have hand picked twenty people from both the knights and the Sun Army to go into this program. Only ten will be allowed to join. When I call your names, will you please stand and walk to the front of the room. Ty, Kate, Sara, Merlin, Jacob, Kyle, Lance, Neil, Harry, Luna, Ginny, Ronald, Hermione, Jessie, Cal, Ben, Tyrone, Ricky, Ethan, and Bobby." Harry looked over and saw Neville look down at his plate. Harry and the others followed David out of the room. David turned to them and raised his wand. At once, each of their coats turned into dark robes. They each had black traveling cloaks that draped to the floor that had an engraving of a fox on the back.
"Now that we have that sorted out," David said. "You are going to go threw a rigorous training maze. It will test you mind, teamwork ability, and most importantly you skill. You will start in fifteen minutes."
David finished and he walked dinning room. he came back out with Neville and two others that where part of the sun army. He talked to them in whispers and then he did the same wand movement and changed their clothes too. They Neville's clothes just changed colors too a deep blue with a silver dragon on the back. It seemed to move as Harry stood there looking at it. He talked to them and sent them out side.
"Now," David said. "Shall we," David said with a smile.
